What Is Laser Hair Reduction, and How Does It Work?
At Charlotte Skin & Laser, we offer safe, effective laser hair reduction treatments using the GentleLase and GentleYAG systems. Under Dr. Rostan’s expert guidance, laser hair reduction treatments can help to reduce hair in areas like the face, chin, underarms, bikini, legs, back, and more. GentleLase and GentleYAG offer safe treatment options for patients with many skin tones and hair colors, ranging from light, non-tanned skin to dark skin. During your consultation, our hair removal specialists will help you determine the treatment and the areas that will benefit most from your procedure.
With our non-invasive hair reduction options, our experts use highly specialized lasers that target and eliminate the hair follicles at the root. By directing light energy into the pigment of the hair follicles, the laser effectively destroys the hair in the active growth phase. As hair grows in cycles, our experts recommend a series of treatments every 4 to 6 weeks. With annual follow-up treatments, many patients enjoy permanent or long-lasting results.
Why Consider Laser Hair Reduction?
Unwanted hair can be more than just a cosmetic concern. It can affect your confidence, comfort, and daily routine. Unlike temporary hair removal methods, such as shaving, waxing, or tweezing, that require constant upkeep, laser hair reduction is designed to deliver long-term results by addressing hair at the root.
At Charlotte Skin & Laser, our laser hair reduction procedures are effective for treating many places on the body, including:
- Face and chin
- Legs
- Arms
- Back
- Bikini line
- Underarms

Preparing for Your Laser Hair Reduction Appointment
Your provider will ensure you know how to prepare for your upcoming laser hair reduction appointment before scheduling, but here are general ways to get ready:
- Stay hydrated in the week before your appointment. Hydrate the treatment area with a lightweight moisturizer.
- Shave the treatment area at least 24 hours before your treatment session to ensure the laser can reach the targeted hair follicles. However, avoid temporary hair removal methods that remove hair at the root, such as plucking, waxing, or tweezing, for at least 4 to 6 weeks.
- Smoking can negatively affect your results; avoid smoking, vaping, and all nicotine products for at least 1 week before and after your appointment.
